Not really. I mean from my experience it is going to vary a lot. Some clubs don't offer any rakeback whatsover. I think the 35% is comming from the AllinAsia site that was promoting heavily in the past.
To give you an example I have a rakeback between 10 and 40% based on how close to the top of the food chain my agent is in a particular club.
It used to be a lot better before but now with the unions the union is forced to pay fixed $/h for union tables which is absolutely ridic. So in the end we have a situation where pppoker is screwing clubs and unions, clubs/unions force agents to cover the increased costs, agents offer less incentives for players to play.
So yeah I didn't heard about any global rakeback for everyone comming to pppoker. This was just some affiliates I think.
PPPoker started to limit clubs to max 1.2k people and force unions to pay a lot of $ for each table running when they are in union so the times of any reasonable rakeback there are probably over fwiw.
